What is Visual Finance?

Visual Finance is a way of seeing the income statement and balance sheet as a single 3D landscape. It's both a learning methodology and a powerful tool. By transforming numbers into visual elements, Visual Finance makes intricate financial relationships easy to grasp and apply in real-world decision-making. Visual Finance is central to our business acumen workshops, providing participants with a clear, graphical representation of financial data—both in our game board simulations and through a web-based app that model financial results for real-world companies.

The Heart of Our Business Acumen Workshops

Visual Finance Connects to Learning

Visual Finance is the heart of our business acumen workshops, it enables participants to visualize financial outcomes and understand the impact of their decisions.  The Income|Outcome game board represents the ‘location’ where teams build and manage their company. It is also their ACTUAL Income Statement and Balance Sheet!  

The Income|Outcome simulation board shows complete Income Statement and Balance Sheet for the classroom company. It's Visual Finance!Visual Finance connects the Income Statement and Balance Sheet... showing the structure of both financial statements.

Both the simulation game board and the Visual Finance app offer a complete representation of financial statements. The game board provides an operational view, focusing on working capital in the workshop situation. The Visual Finance app gives an investor’s perspective on real-world financial statements, adding the details of long-term debt and fixed assets.

Applying the Learning

In the simulation, participants use Visual Finance to see the big picture—the intricate web of inter-relationships between departments. They quickly learn how the Income Statement and Balance Sheet connect (Profit happens on the Income Statement, Cash Flow happens on the Balance Sheet, and each requires separate management!).

At the end of the workshop, Visual Finance takes the learning further. A special module allows participants to analyze results for their own real-world company, competitors, customers, or suppliers—tailored to connect with the company’s immediate priorities and concerns.

‘Finance’ is Complex

Visual Finance Makes It Simple

Visual Finance presents the same information as the financial statements, but does it graphically - using color, placement and volume to create meaning. The relationships are made easy to understand and to assess at a glance - for example, the Debt-to-Equity ratio is the relationship of red stacks to black stacks in the bottom area of the Balance Sheet.
